The best restaurants in Downend South Gloucestershire South West

I absolutely love this family run cafe . Kerry and Rich are so lovely and welcoming. I’m a coffee snob and the coffee here is spot on . I should have put a photo of my breakfast on but I’ve eaten it , lol . The food is beautifully seasoned and very good value for money . There are tables outside but it’s pet friendly anyway . They also do outside catering . Please support this local business.

I recently visited Italb and it was great! The atmosphere was cozy. I tried the pasta and it was delicious. The pizza had a nice crispy crust and the toppings were tasty. For dessert, I had tiramisu, which was the perfect ending to the meal. Overall, a lovely place to enjoy some authentic Italian food! Also, I’d like to thank the staff for being so friendly and making sure everything was perfect for my birthday.☺️❤️

Food is always hot and fresh. Staff are always friendly. For somewhere local i would highly recommend this place

Always polite, accurate wait times given, great food always fresh and hot despite being super busy

First time ordering from Good Frydays and we are very pleased with our food! The chips were proper chip shop chips that you used to get years ago, the cod was huge & tasty and the curry sauce was delicious! Our food arrived at in a very good time considering it was a Saturday. 10/10* we will definitely be back! Thank you for making our Saturday evening enjoyable :)

the friendly Indian takeaway with the softest lamb i have ever had ever , if your a lamb fan you simply have to try with pleasure . a well recommended place to have a delivery or collect 5*****

Great food. Generous portions at a reasonable price. Pie minister a great option. Service was amazing, Freddie was a most enjoyable host. His fun and loving character added to an enjoyable evening. He definitely made us all feel special and looked after us with attention and care.

Went in the evening for the Asian pop up…. Food was fantastic, service was great.. Overall had a great meal in cosy surroundings, will definitely be back!!

Comfortable seating and very good service. Food & drink good quality but quite highly priced

Totally disappointed with takeaway first and last time to be used collected on time but cold within 5mins of journey home - bhaji just fell apart and dopiaza was tasteless New customer but will never return

Great service from the friendly staff, and the cakes are epic! The babychino comes with a biscuit and cream on top for a special treat with little customers!

Decent pub, decent food, garden is excellent after the refit. Staff always helpful. Poker nights on Monday are good fun.

Absolutely vile company. Ordered £15 mash and sausage and driver claimed to deliver food, I went outside while he drove round surrounding roads for 25 minutes and wouldn’t answer the phone 5 times. Contacted deliveroo and they said he left the food outside as no contact made. No food outside and wouldn’t offer a refund. Worst delivery is the world never use. Took my money and food and wouldn’t refund even got through to manger on live chat. What a joke and scammers!

Full of kids and an actual new born baby at 9pm.

There are, arguably, two reasons to visit Downend. One is on a summer’s afternoon to watch Downend CC play cricket with the bar in full swing and plenty of boundaries being scored as the ground is relatively small; the other is to pay a visit to Melanie’s Kitchen. This delicatessen shop is a positive cornucopia of cheeses, bakery items, biscuits, chutneys, artisan breads etc etc. The man who serves at the cheese counter (who I assume is not Melanie!) is a fountain of knowledge on local cheeses and knows all of the local cheese producers, when their cheeses are at their best and is happy to provide advice to ensure that you will leave well satisfied having enjoyed a sensory and culinary experience second to none. It’s full marks from me.
